Brief Answer:
Stop expression of milk
Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, I understand your health concerns.
You need to stop expression of milk and wear a tight brassiere.
Take tablet cabergoline 0.5 mg stat and then repeat it after 24 hours but this will be available on prescription so till then try simple analgesics to suppress pain due to engorged breasts and only avoiding expression of milk will stop milk production.
That way you might not even require the medicine.
All the best.
